Some say this is Sardinia’s true heart – real, ancient, wild, high, closed in an unchanging pastoral settlement – And maybe it is not only the cliché of those considering Sardinia a stereotype, revolving around porceddu and balentes, filu e ferru and outlaws.
Yet, even if we grant for the sake of argument that there is one “real” Sardinia, the initial definition is misleading. The country here is both wild and flat-calm rivers flowing lazily in secular forests, sun shining on snowy peaks, land that at first seems arid and hostile, only shepherds surviving.
